New Censorship Setup
Soon to Be Effective
For Forces in Korea
By the Associated Press
A new. uniform system of cen
sorship for all the armed forces
will become effective in Korea.
The new regulations were an
nounced yesterday by the armed
forces.
Most significant change is plac
ing field press censorship directly
under the public information agen
cies of the services. Intelligence
and other staff units have had this
authority.
Although designed primarily for
overseas theaters of war, the regu
lations provide that censorship
may be enforced within the con
tinental United States upon orders
by the President or Secretary of
Defense if the country has been
or is about to be invaded.
Contents of New Setup.
The new regulations include
these provisions:
A theater, force or area com
mander may institute field cen
sorship under combat conditions.
But only the President or Secre
tary of Defense may remove re
strictions once ordered.
Responsibility for setting up
and enforcing military censorship
remains with the force or area
commander concerned.
Censorable items include matter
of value to an enemy, anything
that would have an adverse effect
upon the combat efficiency of
United States or allied forces, and
false or inaccurate material which
would be detrimental to United
States and allied forces and of
service to an enemy.
The regulations forbid censor
ship ordered merely on the
grounds of ‘ policy” or because of
“anticipated adverse reaction by
the American public.”
Editors Offered Advice.
The announcement yesterday
said the new regulations were
worked up some time ago after
consultation with prominent
American editors and news rep
resentatives. Some of the objec
tions they made to the original
proposals were met in the final
order.
Officials said the regulations,
dated August 15 and now dis
tributed to all major commands,
had been withheld until after the
presidential election and the de
parture of President-elect Eisen
hower from the Far East combat
area.

At News Conference

COPENHAGEN, Denmark, Dec.
. 12.—Christine Jorgensen held her
. first news conference yesterday
5 since word of her change
• from a man into a woman
• broke into the news. She said
1 she has no Hollywood ambitions
as an actress and no intention to
. profit commercially from her 1
-situation
She wore a dark-blue tailored
- outfit with a white blouse and
5 veiled hat in matching color. She
had on a pearl cluster brooch,
• Jong dark gloves and high-heeled
■ blue suede shoes.
1 The 50 reporters and photog
raphers were visibly impressed
; when Christine walked through
their ranks, leaving a faint scent
of perfume. Her attire fitted her
tall slender body beautifully.
Miss Jorgensen. 27, is the former
George Jorgensen of New York.
In her past is a short hitch as a
. GI. She is now a woman—after
two years of hormone treatment
and surgery at Rigs Hospital here
She confirmed again that she
had received offers from A1 Rosen,
an independent Hollywood pro- 1
, ducer, but added “I am not going j
,to accept the offer. I have no
Hollywood ambitions at all.”
She is going to pursue a career

■ Danish, before the show. It is the
same speech she plans when she
makes a tour of the United States
, with her pictures. She plans to
' show the film mainly for Amer
icans of Danish ancestry.
“I began many years ago with
a box camera,” she said. “The

Asked if she realized people

’ A Foreign Office survey declared
the East zone is training youth
“along military lines set by the
Soviet Union and the satellites.”
Two weeks ago. a Foreign Office
statement accused Russia of
nearly doubling the size and fire
power of East Germany’s modern
land, sea and air forces in the!
last six months.
Today’s survey, based on Intel- 1
ligence reports seeping through
the iron curtain into the hands
of Foreign Office experts, charged
that East Germany “has so far
relied on ‘voluntary’ methods but
there is no doubt when the time
is appropriate the full powers of
the state will be used to prepare
even the very young for the role
j of soldiers.”
, Preparing for Service.
The survey claimed the six
year-old Free German Youth or

Nurses Taught to Shoot.
Os the free German youth, the
report stated: “Its normal activi

which girls and boys between 6

rudimentary knowledge in the use
of arms and the need for ‘de

The report added “it is also not
unknown for nurses to* be given

; for nurses in Dresden it has been
made a compulsory subject.”
The report charged “it can be

Agencies Co-operate in Rush
To Use Up Excess Leave
By Joseph Yot^ng
There is a last-minute rush by Government employes to use
up their surplus annual leave by a week from tomoi-ow.
Employes with more than 60 days of accumulated annual leave
must use the excess by December 20 or they will lose it. In a few
cases, employes may accumulate as much as 90 days'but there are’
only a handful of these workers
Actually, the 1952 annual leave ]

year ends on
December 20,
which is on a
Saturday. But
since most Fed
err ‘ employes
don’t work on
Saturday, the
deadline for
using the sur
plus leave will
be Friday. De
cember 19.
The re f ore,
those employes
with excess
leave who have
not applied to their agencies for ,
the time to use it, should do so i
at once. Otherwise, they will for- c
feit the excess portion.
Indications are that in most
cases employes with excess leave
will get the chance to use it.
Agencies are doing everything pos
sible to give employes a chance
to take the time off.
Some employes already have
used up their excess leave during
the past week or so, and others
will take time off during the
coming week.

LEAVE CHART—The Star, on
Sunday, will publish the 1953 an
nual and sick leave chart for
Government employes. It’s some
thing every Government employe
will want to have.

HOLIDAY Federal workers
who are required to stay on the
job on December 26, which is a
I holiday for Government employes,
'will be compensated for the time.
1 Most Federal employes will get
the day off. But it’s believed that
at least 50 per cent of postal em
ployes will have to work on De
cember 26 to clean up the Christ
mas mail. These workers will get
a compensatory day off during
the week or two following Christ
mas, Post Office Department of
ficials declare.
Other Government employes
who have to work on December
26—and only a handful whose
work is absolutely essential will
have to—will get an extra da* .»
pay. This is the informal opinion
of Government legal experts.
As for per diem and hourly
workers, as reported here yester
day. there is every indication that
they, too, will have a holiday on
December 26.

Late Mail Pickup
Added at Bethesda
A late evening mail pickup from
the box outside the Bethesda
branch post office has been estab
lished in answer to requests from
businessmen.
The pickup is at 10:20 p.m.
nightly except Sunday.
The Bethesda Chamber of Com
merce requested the additional
| service for the benefit of shops
;that remain open evenings.
Mrs. Mary A. Lent, executive
secretary, announced that the
chamber’s board of directors will
jmeet at 8 p.m. Monday with Dis
trict Postmaster Roy M. North to
discuss Bethesda postal service.
The chamber is seeking an in
dependent post office. Mr. North
told a reporter, however, that
establishment of an independent
office is out of his hands.
Mrs. Lent added that the pres
ent post office branch is too small
and earlier mail deliveries are
needed in the Bethesda-Chevy
Chase business districts.

’Mink Gift to Strip Teaser
Is Downfall of Ex-Convict
ly th« Associated Press
1 BALTIMORE. Dec. 12.—Chester
L. Jones, 32-year-old former con
vict. received a new five-year
prison term yesterday for giving
a mink stole to a strip-tease
dancer.
The trouble was he charged the
jmink to some one else.
Detectives testified he walked
into a department store November
110 with the dancer and bought
the coat.
A salesgirl thought there was
something queer about it. Detec
tives said the tip led to an inves
tigation which revealed Jones had
obtained about $1,300 in merchan
dise by the same false pretenses.
What, Judge Herman Moser
asked, does a strip-teaser want
with a mink stole?
No one had the answer. The
judge concluded it would “be just
something else to take off.”
